Is it okay to sleep with your ex if you want him back?

It’s so tempting, not just because you know men can’t seem
to resist sex, but because frankly you need it too. The thing
is, will that momentary reassurance lead to a long-term reconciliation?

Every person and every relationship is different, so hard
and fast rules are probably inappropriate here. Mainstream advice
says to not sleep with your ex to try and win him back – but
if done with certain criteria in mind (like being aware of his
behavior afterwards) it could help.

What that means is, if you’re making strides toward reconciliation
and sex seems to just be part of the flow, you need to be aware
as you move into it that it’s potentially dangerous ground.

How will you feel if he doesn’t call you again until next
time he wants sex? Some men, unfortunately, will use as ex for
‘booty calls’ and that’s it, until they’re happily committed
to a new relationship.

On the other hand, there have been times when sex as part
of a ‘make-up’ has helped cement the bond and reignite the devotion,
reminding him of what a great partner he had and now wants back.

The difference? If after the first time you sleep with him
again he invites you to dinner, to hang out with his friends
again and calls to check on you a couple times a day, then go
for it next time.

If, however, he vanishes or just calls sporadically, then
comes back for a roll in the hay only to disappear again, it’s
time to close the door.

How the heck can you survive without the physical and emotional
intimacy? Frankly it’s not easy. There’s no easy way to banish
the pain. Even time doesn’t really heal all wounds – but moving
on well with your life can, indeed.

Then, if he sees you’re happy and fulfilled without him,
that may be all it takes to make him desperate to win you back...
for real – at last.
